Everchanging Nature
Palace Gardens Mews is a fantastic example of an original/ surviving Mews. The original purpose of the Mews was to provide stable/ coach house accommodation for the larger houses on Kensington Palace Gardens. Now, the Mews properties are used for residential purposes, with a few planning applications being made for alterations to the properties before, and since 2003; mainly alterations to the front elevations and external refurbishments. Conservation Area controls apply to any development in the Mews.
